Udemy for You – What Udemy is doing for instructors

Udemy Live Official Conference Recordings: We recorded some of the best sessions from Udemy Live this July and have added them to a free course. In light of the new brand and it’s theme of global connection, we encourage you to watch the “Going Global” session from Day 1 to learn more about how we’re dedicated to serving students and instructors in 190 countries.

Responsiveness badges: We launched a test for a new course badge called “Top-responding instructor.” This badge is applied to courses that receive at least 10 student questions in the last 90 days, and when 90% of questions received an instructor response in less than 24 hours. The goal is to make instructor responsiveness more visible to students, and to give credit to instructors who provide responsive answers.

New local payment methods: We’ve rolled out new local payment methods in India, Turkey, Mexico, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Peru, and Uruguay. Now students in these countries can purchase courses with local credit and debit cards. Stay tuned for more local payment methods to come!
